Terrible Surgical Operation
A FATAL MISTAKE.

The Ctecctdaad [ Ohlo) Press, OF
February 23d, 1883, published an
account of a fatal surgical opera
ton which caused a great COM
motion among medical men
throughout the whole country,
DR., Thayer, the most eminentsur-
geon in Cleveland, pronouncing
it scandalous. 1t appears that a
Mrs. King had been suffering for
many years from some disease of
the stomach, which had resisted
the treatment Of all the physic-
ians in attendance. The disease
with aslight derange-
ment of the digestion, with a poor
appetite, followed by a peculiar
indescribable distress in the stom-
ach, a feeling that has been de-
|scribed as a faint I" all gone" sem
sation, a sticky slime collecting
about the teeth, causing a disa-
greeable taste. This sensation
was not removed by food, but,
on the contrary, it was increased.
After a while the hands and feet
became cold and sticky-a cold
perspiration. There was a con-
slant tired and languid feeling.
Then followed dreadful nerv-
BUSINESS, with gloomy forebod-
ings. Finally the patient was
unable to retain any food what
ever, and there was constant
pain in the abdomen. All pre-
scribed remedies failing to give
relief, a consultation was held,
when it was decided that the
patient had a cancer in the stom-
ach, and in order to save the
patients life an operation was
justifiable. Accordingly, on the
22d of February, 1888, the OPP
Grafton was performed by DR..
Vance in the presence Of DR..
Tuckerman, DR.. Perrier, DR..
Arms, DR.. Gordon, DR.. Capner,
and DR.. Halliwell of the Police
Board. The operation consisted
in laying open the cavity of the
abdomen and exposing the stom-
ach and bowels. When this had
been done. an examination of the
organs was made, but to the hor-
ror and dismay of the doctors
there was no cancer to be found.
The patient did not have a can
Ger. When too late the medical
men discovered that they had
made a terrible mistake; but
they sewed the parts together
and dressed the wound that they
had made, but the poor woman
sank from exhaustion and died
in a few hours. How sad it must
be for the husband of this poor
woman to know that his wife
died from the effects of a sur
gical operation that ought never
to have been performed. If this
woman had taken the proper
remedy for Dyspepsia and Ner-
vous Prostitution flor this was
what the disease really was she
would have been living to-day,
SHAKER EXTRACT OF RooTs, OR
SEIGEL's CURATIVE SYRUP, a rem
edy made expressly for Dyspep-
STA or Indigestion, has restored
many such cases to perfect health
after all other kinds of treatment
have failed. The evidence of its
efficacy in curing this class of
cases is too voluminous to be
published here but those who
read the published evidence in
favor of this dyspeptic remedy
do not question its convincing
nature, and the article has an
extensive sale.
